After Debica Directional (was using two full seasons on the Fiat CC and SC), it is time for Polaris 2 (from November of this year - Astra F). The hard way I wanted to know the differences between these models. Accumulated a lot of divergent views on both. Price-wise this winter were virtually the same price. In short, the rubber eye Polaris seems to be harder than Debica ("grope" both, have to stand outside) - it can be concluded that the kilkunastostopniowym cold may be greater differences in opinion, but such temperature this year was not observed. He drove in various extreme conditions. In total, they are similar in terms of utility tyres. More to the point BP2 wet (rain, mud) roads and dry (better brakes and leads) to the DF and vice versa - a point more for DF in the snow (kopny and compacted). Volume: I noticed that the DF are louder on dry (noise), but BP2 get specific echo (ping?) On the wet asphalt, but winter is a secondary matter. Both fully check all winter conditions, using common sense. All in all - to the city BP2, and DF area, but that's just fine because it's a suggestion, however, happily dowiozły Polarisy 2 time (me and my wife in labor) to the hospital, and the conditions were extreme (tens of km at night, in a blizzard and snow drifts).

So I read the reviews and wonder what they are talking over people that they are tyre "sucks". I drove on these tyres 4 seasons (Polaris) often in harsh winter conditions and really do well radziły. They are quite noisy but grip on snow and marshes posniegowym is good, low abrasion, are not readily susceptible to mechanical damage (Polish hole). We know someone is an idiot and winter break always starts with adhesion (pedal to the metal), take turns sideways, goes 120 km / h faster is no tyre did not satisfy, and this too. So I recommend to stay at home (do not kill yourself or anyone else). In summary: a good winter tyre for the price

A moment ago I set up and tested it and proved to be a big linden tree. ABS still pounding me on the leg traction ao forget it. I do not know what could be the reason I think it may be too high torque and fast wheels lose contact with the ground. I took, so a second toy car with the new tyres, but Debica Frigo Directional 165/70R13 and stood where I had a problem with moving the astra and nothing, no wonder, he immediately pulled. When braking, and I have the other ABS-zero problems with it, nothing breaks. Both the pleural empyema, so have a great time. I hope that the tyres do not turn out to be a complete failure, so far I made a piece as you will see when you take even pojeżdżę. Warn, think before buying, because something I think this model is a little underdeveloped.
